🏡 Sometimes it's the little things that can turn into big problems.
During a recent home check, we discovered a dehumidifier draining into a bathtub that was plugged. The curtain was pulled closed but on our routine visit we check everything. The dehumidifier had been placed in the bathroom by a maintenance person after an upstairs neighbor experienced a water leak that seeped into the unit below. While the dehumidifier was doing its job removing moisture, the clogged drain meant the water had nowhere to go.
Left unnoticed, this situation could have led to additional water damage, excess moisture, and costly repairs.
This is exactly why regular home checks matter, especially during Florida's hot and humid months. 🌴☀️
A security camera wouldn't have caught it.
A neighbor likely wouldn't have noticed it.
But a thorough home watch visit did.
